Answer:

C. straight back chairs will be overcosted

Explanation:

Miller Company makes two types of chairs. One of the chairs is a rocking chair. The other is a straight-back chair. Both chairs are made by hand. Miller Company uses a company-wide overhead rate that is based on direct labor hours to assign overhead costs to the two products. If Miller automates the production of straight-back chairs and continues to use direct labor hours as a company-wide allocation basis:

A. rocking chairs will be undercosted

B. There should be no impact on unit cost  

C. straight back chairs will be overcosted

D. rocking chairs will be overcosted.

EXPLANATION

If Miller automates the production of straight-back chairs and continues to use direct labor hours as a company-wide allocation basis then the straight back chairs will be overcosted<u> because the automation process directly implies that it no longer drives labor hours since it is no longer made by hand.</u>

Automated processes should use machine hours rather than labor hours, for the allocation of its overhead.

Answer:

<em>The question is incomplete, the options include:</em>

a). rocking chairs will be undercosted

b). there should be no impact on unit cost

c). straight back chairs will be overcosted

<em>d). rocking chairs will be overcosted. is Correct</em>

Explanation:

The immediate working hours of straight back chairs will be shortened following the automation of straight back chairs, and that of rocking chairs will remain unchanged.

Suggesting the overall overhead remains unregulated, Gross Direct working hours would minimize the ratio of Direct rocking chair working hours in total direct working hours.

<em>And the overhead distribution on the basis of Direct Labor hours for Rocking chair would also increase as before. And it would overcost the rocking chairs.</em>

romanna [79]

The correct question is:

During June, Buttrey Corporation incurred $67,000 of direct labor costs and $7,000 of indirect labor costs. The journal entry to record the accrual of these wages would include a:

A)debit to Work in Process of $67,000B)credit to Work in Process of $74,000C)debit to Work in Process of $74,000D)credit to Work in Process of $67,

Answer:

a. debit to Work in Process of $67,000

Explanation:

Labour costs are made up of direct labour cost and indirect labour costs.

An addition of these two items results in amount of money the company will pay as wages to worked (labour).

In the given scenario we will then add direct and indirect labour cost to get wages to be paid.

Wage = 72,000 + 12,000 = $84,000

Wages is credited when raising journal entry

Direct labour will be classified under work in process (that is $72,000)

While indirect labour is manufacturing overhead $12,000)

Work in process and manufacturing overhead are debited when raising journal entry

So one of the entries will be a debit to Work in Process of $67,000

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

When Jada is 44 years, the investment will be worth $39,741

Explanation:

time will be 44 - 38 = 6

t = 6 years

compounded every 3 month means 4 times a year (12/3 = 4)

n = 4

r = 7.8%

p = $25,000

FV = P(1 + \frac{r}{n} )^ {nt}\\FV = 25000(1 + \frac{0.078}{4})^{4 * 6}\\FV = 25000(1 + 0.0195)^{24}\\FV = 25000(1.0195)^{24}\\FV = 25000 * 1.589620748\\FV = 39740.518710589\\FV = 39741
